The increasing need to challenge young children to discover,
experiment and learn about the multicultural world around them is
becoming a must and not an asset anymore.
Several bilingual schools have been set up in Egypt. Yet there are
very few who offer the trilingual education.

Through the study of these languages children will experiment different contexts of communication with
events in sequence and reconstruction activities.
Bilingual/Trilingual teaching will also stimulate a child’s natural curiosity to learn by being exposed to a rich
variety of images and experiences.
Therefore, growing up in a multilingual environment equally helps to develop his/her perception of our
surroundings, awareness of cultural differences and character flexibility. And that forms our vision which is
This vision has shaped the education provided by the school throughout the years since it was founded. It is
a vision that continues to form every aspect of the school life today. The languages which are English,
Arabic and German are taught in parallel. Every effort is made to develop pupils’ fluency in these languages
and to ensure that they receive full benefit from their linguistic education. The quest for our vision
continues...!
For a child, learning a second or a third language is not more difficult than learning only one.
Language learning at a very young age is greatly beneficial not only to better master a second or third
language but also to enhance one's very early understanding of the patterns of one's own mother tongue.
Thus, teaching a language is but one aspect, using the language as a medium to enhance creative thinking
skills and to develop cognitive flexibility which is here particularly underlined.
"To provide an authentic trilingual education that would span from Kindergarten to secondary level"
